The session begins by explaining NoSQL databases in general, and how they compare with traditional relational database platforms. Then you'll learn about the many features of Cosmos DB, including its multi-model capabilities, which let you store and query schema-free JSON documents (using either DocumentDB or MongoDB APIs), graphs (Gremlin API), and key/value entities (tables API). You'll learn about global distribution, scale-out partitioning, tunable consistency, custom indexing, attachments, and more. You'll also explore client development using the many available SDKs and APIs. This session will get you up to speed on Cosmos DB.
